Last start won by 3.5 m after showing early speed, (Fr1) at this track (2:33.40) beating Rocky Stride in 3yo on October 31 at $51. Should get all the favours from this draw. Has an inside draw and looks tough to beat again.

Expected Settling Position: Leader

Last start 4th (Fr3) over 2200m at Launceston, at the bell was 3rd-2.8 beaten 13 m by Family Reasons (2:43.20) on October 25 at $2.70. Before that, a solid effort when 2nd (Fr1) over 2090m after showing early pace at this track, at the bell was leading 5.8 beaten 3 m by Tullah Girl (2:35.10) on October 16 at $3.70. Rates highly. Well placed and expected to bounce back.

Last start 7th (Fr1) over 2090m at this track beaten 24 m by Imperial Laz (2:34.60) on October 16 at $8. At the run before good run despite getting well back, when 2nd (Fr6) over 2090m at this track, at the bell was 3rd-12.2 beaten a head by Tappy (2:36.10) on October 2 at $31. No surprise if he turned things around.

Last start was well back in the run when 7th (Fr5) over 2200m at Launceston, well beaten by Family Reasons (2:43.20) on October 25 at $26. At his previous start 9th (Fr2) over 2090m at this track, at the bell was 9th-14.2 beaten 17 m by Tappy (2:36.10) on October 2 at $31. Capable of more than he has shown recently. Expecting a better run this time.

10-year-old gelding showed improvement last time. 3rd (Sr3) over 1680m at Launceston beaten 11 m by Got The Glow (2:02.60) on November 1 at $20. The race before was not as impressive when well beaten into sixth behind Likeable Rogue at Burnie over 2180m on October 23 at $12. Not likely to threaten this time.
